Marie Claire Celebrity News: Renee Zellweger

Renée Zellweger was on fine form on the red carpet last night, as she showed off her regained curves in Carolina Herrera.

The actress lost a drastic amount of weight after she plumped up for her role as Bridget Jones, but was glowing with health as she hit the red carpet for the premiere of Appaloosa at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Beverly Hills.

The 39-year-old actress wowed in her off-the-shoulder LBD with a high-voltage ruffled neckline, which she teamed with classic black stilettos.

Appaloosa follows the story of two friends, Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen, who are hired to police a town that is suffering under the corrupt rule of a rancher.

But their job becomes complicated after the arrival of a young widow, played by Renée.

The Texan-born star was supported at the premiere by her good friend Courteney Cox, who also hails from America's Deep South.

According to the Daily Mail, Renée revealed to reporters that she didn’t need much persuading to take on the role. She said: 'Are you kidding? Ed Harris calls you on the phone, that's enough. Then you add a little Viggo, a little Jeremy Irons and that fantastic story, what's not to love?'
